Bookmarks Toolbar Folder is not a toolbar. It's a big ugly clunky name.

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49543 had some mention of it but it
won't matter since Firebird will take over

Bookmarks Bar is shorter and a friendlier name

Summary: rename "Bookmarks Toolbar Folder" to "Bookmarks Bar" → [diction] rename "Bookmarks Toolbar Folder" to "Bookmarks Bar"
here's why

1. Bookmarks Bar is shorter
2. Bookmarks Bar sounds better
3. Bookmarks Toolbar Folder is not a folder
4. IE calls it the Link Bar, not a toolbar
5. I can already tell it's a folder.
I don't see the benefit to changing this, and disagree that its a better name.
